More Info

The TACP
Association is a 501c(19) non-profit organization. Our Mission is to
remember our fallen, to honor the living, and to aid brothers in need.

WHAT: The 24-Hour Challenge
is an exciting event to honor and remember our fallen brothers - and it is a fundraiser
to help the Association continue to support the TACP Community.

WHEN:Run will start at 1200L on 26 March and concluding at 1159L on 27
March. Fundraising can start immediately.

FUNDRAISING: This site will
help track your unit/organizations funds raised and help you advertise and
promote the event. Participating units will be at the “Team Level” – all
members of your team can email your Team’s link to their family and friends.
You can also post your Team’s link on Facebook to increase your number of
Supporters.

TRACKING
MILEAGE:At least one runner
per Unit/Organization will begin running and subsequent runners will be
alternated for the entire 24-hour period. The runners do not run for the entire
timeframe but are platooned around the clock in order to give them rest, to
hydrate, and keep the motivation high. You can be creative with how they cover
the time blocks.NOTE: One major change
from the previous years is that the mileage for all runners for each time
period will count. For example, if 5 personnel run 5 miles together, then tally
25 miles for that period.

WHERE TO
RUN:These type events
typically are done on a track, but any measured distance can be used as long as
the team is aware of the course. Each team will need a recorder to keep track
of the runners name, time, and overall tally of miles. You can also use GPS
logs so runners are not forced to run a specific course or distance. Each
Unit/Organization is responsible for tracking this information and turning it
into the TACP Association ASAP after the event has concluded.

CATEGORIES:We have two categories this year, Team and Ultra. The Team
category is defined as all members of a unit, families, retirees, civilians,
kids, TDY members, deployed members, etc… The Ultra category will consist
of any 2 runners. A unit may have as many Ultra teams as they wish, however,
personnel competing in the Ultra category are not to be counted in the mileage
for the Team category.
